Abstrakt: This manuscript describes the ways in which we, university professors and directors, reimagined and transformed existing university classrooms to become shared spaces where the cultural identities of children of historically marginalized communities are recognized as rich contexts for learning. A summer camp for emergent bilinguals (Camp Somos) and The Williams Family Multicultural Literacy Collaborative (The Literacy Collaborative) invite unique connections between our university and partnership schools. In these spaces, children's cultural identities and multicultural literature are central to the physical environment, curriculum development, and program experiences. Camp Somos and The Literacy Collaborative celebrate diversity in caring, inclusive, and equitable spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
